I use Roon and I stream via Airplay to my different NL loudspeakers, from this viewpoint there is no need for NL for me.

BUT, Question: I often use "touch-to-join" when I go to another room to listen / connect another NL loudspeaker to the current playing one. Does this still work with the new loudspeakers based on Mozart? Or is this Airplay feature only available with old NL speakers?

Yes thats correct

If you Airplay to one speaker, then tapping to join others is using NL.

The newer Mozart speakers cannot do this - you have to Airplay to each speaker, whether thats one or multiple.

The idea is that B&O are gong to add back NL (its going to be called Speaker Link) and Touch to Join to the newer Mozart speakers.

That update is not coming soon, from what I understand - and whether it works exactly the same as NL on current NL speakers, or if there are some subtle differences remains to be seen.

I think you use NL when tap to join so actually you are a NL user 😁

 

Only when you Airplay directly from your device to multiple speakers you bypass NL.

 

 

If NL disappears, tap to join will also.

 

Not 100% sure as I use NL only

Of course - I was assuming so.

I wonder how Airplay stream sharing via the newer Speaker Link will be / need to be configured on the Mozart platform.

This assumes that the NL speaker has

 

been configured to support AirPlay over Beolink

That - definitely - has to be part of the job!

I've just been interviewed by Claudine and Lyle from Bang & Olufsen. It was a very good conversation :) 

I've signed an NDA, so I can't elaborate apart from saying that (1) the main topic was the current use of my system and (2) the discussion went way beyond the things discussed in this topic or the next software update. Good things!

Also had interview with them today. Very interesting and positive of the direction they are validating use cases. I hope this will turn into reality soon.

I had my interview a couple of days ago, and I agree with the sentiment that it was exciting to hear some of Claudine and Lyle's ideas.  I would love it if I could trade notes with the others who were interviewed, but of course will not do so due to the NDA.

Who else has been interviewed?

Hello ladies and gents,

I have been interviewed as well and I can say that it was very exciting first of all to meet the people behind the keyboards, and the avatars. What was discussed was very interesting and confirms that the brand looks to the future with optimism, certainty and great ideas.
